From Midday Report, 12:17 pm on 5 May 2022

A one-shot attempt to eradicate the cattle disease Mycoplasma bovis appears to have worked -- there's just one property left with active infections. The disease was discovered here in 2017; and a total of 271 confirmed properties have been cleared and more than 175-thousand 176,325 cattle culled. The government's just announced 68-million dollars to continue the eradication effort over the coming year.
